This newcomer to the Clementi Avenue 2 'hood brings a welcome bistro option to the suburbs. Set in a quieter part of the neighbourhood, G'Day serves up Western-type fare at reasonable nett prices (no service charge!). The menu puts together familiar flavours like Truffle Fries ($7), Mushroom Aglio Olio ($10.90) and Fish & Chips ($12.90) — perfect for no-brainer family meals in the West. Consider getting the Parmesan Garlic Wings ($8 for six mid-wings), fried till crisp golden and tossed with garlic salt and powdered parmesan. Some Burpplers shared that they found the cheese a bit overwhelming towards the end, so make sure you share these. For mains, the Soft Shell Crab Aglio Olio ($13.90) puts a luxe spin on a classic with a beautifully fried whole crustacean. Burppler Alex Chua loves how the garlic and chilli flakes perk up the flavour of the dish.
Avg Price: $20 per person

It comes tossed in garlic salt and Parmesan cheese that helped to lift its flavour up further, though the latter may be overpowering due to the amount added.
Always liked it when I see chicken wings on the menu as a side, especially if they come with Paprika Honey (which they also have) or some sort of marinade or dusting of powder. Really enjoyed the crispy wings with juicy flesh that came off the bones easily, though thought that the Parmesan can get a little jelak after while — almost akin to the same sort of Parmesan powder one gets to use at casual pizza places; could do with a bit more garlic to counter off the cheesiness. That being said, I do feel that the Honey Paprika Wings would have suited my taste buds better.
